Happy Labor Day (or Labour Day, where I am right now in Canada),
The Night Drivers and I are taking a few weeks off of the road. I am spending time with family in Alberta, enjoying what are the last few days of summer.
We’re very pleased to announce that we have a brand new single coming out early this month. It will be available on the radio CD service “New Cuts of Bluegrass”, and as soon as it becomes available for purchase, I’ll let you know. In the meantime, I hope you hear it on the air somewhere. The song is called “Final Farewell”, and it was cowritten by me and Jon Weisberger. The song will be one of the new tracks included on a “best of” project coming out on Rebel Records called Lost Souls and Free Spirits. The title comes from a line of the chorus of “Train That Never Slows Down”, one of the songs on the CD, which was written by the late Harley Allen.
IBMA week will be upon us soon. We’re kicking off the week with an appearance at the Country Music Hall of Fame as part of a celebration that’s happening there on the Saturday before (see our tour dates page). We’ll also be playing a Rebel Records after hours showcase on Wednesday of IBMA week, and we’ll play Monday night for our annual performance at Tom T. and Dixie Hall’s Good Home Grown Music showcase.
Have a great Labor/Labour Day weekend!
